Do Dil Bandhe Ek Dori Sey (ON HOLD)

chapter 7

Assalaamu 'Alaikum!

Sorry for the late and short update. But the truth is, I can't write without having something to munch on. But here it is!

Today has got to be the worst day to start a life in Texas. I still can't believe that he bumped into me two times in a day!

As soon as we entered the house, I threw my bag on the couch and ran to my room for a shower. After the shower, I went downstairs.

"Hey, did Mr. Harris call today?" I asked descending down the stairs upon seeing Nida.

"He did. He said he will be coming tomorrow to pick us up." she answered.

"Picking us up? For?" I asked.

"Not sure exactly, but he said he wants to take us to this place in downtown." She answered as she sat down on the couch.

"And what is that for?" I asked sitting next to her.

She looked at me annoyed. "God you need a full description of everything."

"Indeed I do. So why are we going there again?" I asked once again and mentally laughed looking at her face.

"Allah! He said he wants us to see some places there and see the beauty of some of the buildings and how they were built." She finally answered.

"Oh!" I said and looked at the blank wall.

From the corner of my eye, I could see Nida looking at me. "What?"

"Aur kuch puchna hai?" she asked annoyed and I chuckled and pinched her cheeks.

"Nahi. By the way, do you want to watch a movie?" I asked out of bored.

"Naw! Not in the mood." She answered and I rolled my eyes. This girl is never in the mood for anything.

"By the way, suna hai aj ka din acha nahi guzra tumhara."

"What? Nahi toh!" I furrowed.

"Acha. Meine suna tumhare kapre bhi kharab ho gaye." Immediately the guy's face came in my mind and I understood what she was talking about.

"Oh that! Yeah, stupid insaan. Do dafa he bumped into me. first my skirt and then my shirt." I explained in a mad tone and she nodded in understanding way with an amused smile.

Ignoring that smile, I asked about Noor as I didn't see her. "And where is that Noor?" "Room I guess." Nida said and I got up and went to her room.

I knocked on her room and heard an "Aja kameeni!" really aik toh privacy ki respect kerke knock kiya, and such a word. Touba! *touches ears*

I opened the door and entered. I found her laying comfortably on the bed playing on her phone. A smile made its way on my lips as I jumped on her bed making her phone slip out of her hands. She looked at me give me an annoyed-mad look and I smiled sheepishly.

"Whatcha doing?" I purposely asked to annoy her.

"Cricket khel(play) rahi hoon, khel na hai?" she rolled her eyes and I played along. "Sure why not. Though I don't know how to and not a fan either."

"Acha, what are we eating today. My belly is grumbling." I rubbed my belly.

"What do you want to eat?" she asked still on her phone.

"I don't know. What do we have?" I asked

"I don't know!" she shrugged. "Only one way to find out."

She got out of bed and said, "Let's see what we have in the kitchen." I nodded and we headed towards the kitchen.

Opening the fridge, I spotted some veggies, sauces, fruits, and a few other things. Looking in the freezer, I found some frozen food. Like frozen pasta, pizza, fries, fish, waffles, pancakes and so many more things. But out of all of that nothing but a slice of triangle seems satisfying.

"Going with pizza. What are you going with?" I asked as I took the pizza out of the freezer.

"Think I will go with pizza too." Noor replied and I put the pizza in the oven and waited for it to be done.

Finally after about 20 minutes the pizza was done. Putting on a movie on the TV Noor and I started eating our pizza. Soon Nida joined us too.

"Thought you weren't in the mood." I retorted.

"Always in the mood for my Shahrukh!" I shook my head in disaprovable and continued watching the movie.

The time passed so fast that we didn't even realize when the clock hit 9. Yawing we all went to our rooms and fell into a deep slumber.

I know, intahayi boring aur bakwaas chapter tha. I apologize.

Mujhe roza lag raha tha, so I ended it right there. But will update later on in the night today. In Sha Allah!

Till then, take care! And take khub sara advantage of this holy month like I am.

Allah Hafiz! :)
